Review of Dumas’ Histoire d’un Casse Noisette, and Surprising Nuts !

Once again, thank you to Librivox dot org and reader Ezwa!  Can’t go wrong with Alexandre Dumas, pere!!

C’ettait une jollie conte pour les enfants, mais moi aussi, je l’ai bcp aimee !!  /   This was a great kids story, but I also loved it!!

We start with the ‘frame’ – that is to say, with the entourage of the story. The children captured the person retelling the story.   Then, there is a story of a fever that ends with a marriage.   But, this time, the lady saves the man!  /  On commence avec le ‘frame’ -cet a dire, avec l’entourage de l’histoire. Ce sont les enfants qu’avaitent capture’s la personne que reconte l’histoire. Ensuite, il y avait un histore de fievre qui termine avec une marriage. Mais, cette fois ci, c’est la dame qui sauve l’homme !
Chouette !

Cool!

“…and now you know why we call a difficult thing

‘A hard nut to crack.’

/  …et vous
savez pourquoi l’on dit maintenant d’une chose
difficile :

« C’est une dure noisette à casser. “

     I loved this story!   Very unexpected.  Held my attention from the very start,  just like his Count of Monte Cristo.
